Zara Larsson Keeps The Midnight Sun Era Burning
Zara Larsson’s “Midnight Sun” has already turned one, and yet the song is still out here grabbing new titles like it just walked into the room.
Case in point: “Midnight Sun” has reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart, giving Zara another major radio crown inside an era that has been anything but sleepy.
The bigger gag? With “Midnight Sun,” Zara becomes the first artist ever to notch two new Pop Airplay No. 1s in back-to-back weeks, following “Stateside” with the immaculate, chill and cool PinkPantheress.
“Midnight Sun” follows “Stateside” with PinkPantheress, making Zara Larsson’s current pop-radio run glow even brighter.

Released as the album’s title track in June 2025, “Midnight Sun” has become one of those Zara moments that keeps stretching past its original release window. It started as a bright, Swedish-summer pop statement and has now turned into a slow-blooming radio victory lap.
And then there is “Stateside.” The PinkPantheress collaboration already had its own icy-cool rise, hitting No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart before “Midnight Sun” followed right behind. Back-to-back style. Very “pop girl keeps receipts.”
It is especially delicious because Zara’s current era has been doing exactly what the title promises: glowing long after sunset. The Midnight Sun album, tour looks, makeup moments, remixes and radio movement have all kept feeding each other, turning the era into a full pop ecosystem.
So yes, “Midnight Sun” may be one year old, but it is clearly not done shining. Get into Zara’s continuing glow-up and the official video below.
